England vs Sri Lanka 3rd Test Day 3 Highlights: A quickfire unbroken partnership between Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis has put Sri Lanka in command against England in the third and final Test at The Oval. The visitors were 94/1 at stumps of Day 3, just 125 shy of the 219-run target set by England, who were bowled out for a paltry total of 156 in the second innings. Nissanka was unbeaten on 53 (44) while Mendis (30 off 25*) also started on a positive note, following Dimuth Karunaratne’s early departure. Earlier in the day, England keeper Jamie Smith hit another half-century, but his 50-ball 67 could only propel England to a 214-run lead. (Scorecard)
